 Re: The O/T thread! Funnily enough, I'm looking at buying the good lady an Alfa Romeo Mito with the twin cylinder turbo engine that is 875cc and good for 85BHP - Fiat group have a 105BHP coming too.....it sounds like a really revvy 2CV and is much more characterful than a 4 pot.

Re: The O/T thread! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vstma42lHEkIs it just me or does this sound like a slightly knackared 2cv gearbox? 15 seconds in... going from 3rd to 2nd slightly too fast.
